A couple of very funny comments on YouTube:
- The fire was caused by a KERS explosion in Senna's car.... Don't f*ck with Schumacher! The FIA's verdict was that it was Hamilton's fault. :laugh:
Nodz:
Quite a few more injuries reported:
--- Quote from: BBC ---One of the Williams team has been taken to hospital, while four Caterham mechanics are being treated at the track's medical unit.
A Force India team member is also being treated on the site after suffering smoke inhalation.
The incident is believed to involve a Kers unit, which sparked a fuel fire.
"I was there when [founder] Frank Williams was giving his speech to everyone," said Williams reserve driver Valtteri Bottas.
"I felt an explosion from behind, somewhere from the fuel area, and everyone ran out quickly."

Good to see other teams helping out regardless of their own safety.
